Mark Meadows: Freedom Caucus is working 'very closely' with White House to write DACA
Meadows said that the Freedom Caucus legislation would provide some sort of new plan to protect the "DREAMers," but it would also include provisions such as E-Verify and ways to limit the ways immigrants can get other family members to the U.S. through sponsorship.
Meadows said if Republicans can offer a better deal and have the votes to pass legislation, the White House would take a serious look. “He likes dealmakers, I like dealmakers and so I’m going to give him enough options where there’s at least a consideration for him to take a deal where I can deliver the votes ... (for a deal) that best represents the Trump voter and the Trump agenda,” Meadows said. “At this point it’s incumbent upon me to give him good reasonable solutions on how we can get there.” Heading up the Freedom Caucus' immigration team will be four members: Reps. Raul Labrador, R-Idaho, Steve Pearce, R-N.M., Scott Perry, R-Pa., and Warren Davidson, R-Ohio. Labrador is a former immigration attorney. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/...ion/667619001/ They better be prepared to pass it with just republican votes then smh. |

not good that these dudes are getting involved.... everything is going to get thrown out of whack if they want to include e-verify and RAISE act provisions now to DACA.

Yeah, e-verify and killing chain migration ain't happening... I could see maybe e-verify but not changing the sponsorship.

Why can't they just vote for DA with border security, where is the sympathy?

Most Republixans don't want e-verify or RAISE act provision. The votes are not there. |

It looks like all this might lead to Dems just attaching Dream Act to any must pass bill....
Ryan is giving the freedom caucus a seat at the table, knowing that their demands will not be accepted by Democrats. |
Re: Mark Meadows: Freedom Caucus is working 'very closely' with White House to write
Lol, good luck getting that passed. The freedom caucus doesn't matter. They are less than 50 votes. Dream act and border security will be a centrist vote. It will exclude radicals on the right and left.
